Since 2006, Taipei 101 has been actively engaged in ESG practices. Not only did it achieve LEED certification in 2011, 2016, and 2021, but it also reached a new milestone in sustainability in 2023. With the highest score globally, it secured the "WELL Health-Safety Rating Platinum Certification," making it the first among the world's top 10 supertall buildings to hold both LEED and WELL dual Platinum certifications. This underscores Taipei 101's steadfast commitment and efforts towards environmental sustainability and healthy living, solidifying its leading position in global health and green building management.
Taiwan Electric Company, via Hulin and Shimao Second Substation, feed 22.8 KV high-voltage power to TAIPEI 101.
The building's electrical system applies the concept of dual-source, dual-backup, and dual-feeder to lay cables for internal power supply. If power interruption occurs on one side, power supply can continue via a switch from the electrical room. The design greatly reduces the risk of power outage.
In the case of a power surge or failure, power is automatically controlled by the switch control, and the emergency circuit is switched to supply emergency power.
TAIPEI 101 features an ice storage system, which uses off-peak power to store ice during the night and supply air conditioning load during the day to help reduce peak power consumption. The VAV partition is used to supply the air supply system to provide a comfortable air conditioning environment.
When power outages occur due to an accident or stoppage by the Taiwan Power Company, the emergency power supply activates automatically to supply electricity for various emergency functions. The company is equipped with 8 diesel-fuel emergency generators, capable of supplying power for 46 hours continuously without additional fuel.
